The Forward Deployed Engineer (FDE) Playbook

An operational blueprint for enterprise AI architecture, ingestion plumbing, and executive scoping.

By Robin Pandey • 47 pages • Kindle • $9.99

Why it's short

47 pages is deliberate. This is a field manual, not a textbook — built to read cover to cover in one sitting and open again on the flight to your next scoping call. Every page is something you can point to in a client meeting; nothing here is filler to justify a higher price.

What's inside

Enterprise AI Architecture

Multi-agent orchestration, LangGraph workflows, and the deterministic circuit-breakers that keep them from failing silently in production.

Ingestion Plumbing & Guardrails

Wiring enterprise data sources, PII sanitization gateways, and what it actually takes to secure a production RAG pipeline.

Executive Scoping & Delivery

Scoping high-impact AI projects, aligning deliverables to business outcomes, and mitigating risk before it becomes a live-demo failure.
